Information from Godiva Rocks Pete Chambers.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Its not yer 1234 punk more but a sound more akin to ATV but with humour. Never ones to take themselves seriously one of their last recordings was ‘Jennifer Connifer’ but that doesn’t excuse naming a song Leamington (after Leamington Spa). If they don’t make you smile then something’s missing.<\/i>” From this site http:\/\/www.punk77.co.uk\/groups\/shapes.htm<\/a><\/p>\n

They were on or played by John Peel. They are on Facebook here https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/theoriginalshapes<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n
